Saoirse / Freedom
This printed tarp on the side of the Falls Road Library Image commemorates the ten 1981 hunger strikers (along with Frank Stagg, Michael Gaughan, Nora Connolly, and Mairead Farrell, paired with international figures Gandhi, Martin Luther King, Leonard Peltier, and Nelson Mandela) and features a poem by Bobby Sands:
“All things must come to pass as one
So hope should never die
There is no height or bloody might
That a freeman can’t defy.
There is no source or foreign force
Can break one man who knows,
That his free will no thing can kill
And from that freedom grows.”
